ENGLAND AND WALES CRICKET BOARD LIMITED

ECB - General Privacy Policy

This website (Website ) is operated by the England and Wales Cricket Board Limited (ECB), the UK
governing body for cricket as part of its network of sites and sub sites (together, the ECB Websites).

Additional privacy terms, which form part of this Privacy Policy, apply to personal data and use of,
certain ECB Websites and ECB services. Please click on the relevant link(s) below to view the
additional terms:

Unless stated otherwise, in the relevant additional privacy terms shown, the ECB is the data
controller in respect of all personal data collected on this Website which means that we are
responsible for ensuring that we do so in full compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and all
other related privacy laws.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect about you, how we use it, and the steps we
take to ensure that it is kept secure. We also explain your rights and how to contact us.

Links to other websites

Please note, this Website may contains links to other websites that are not controlled by the ECB.
These links are provided for your convenience. We are only responsible for the ECB’s privacy
practices and the ECB’s security of the ECB Websites. We recommend that you check the privacy
and security policies and procedures of each and every other website that you visit.

BY USING THIS WEBSITE AND GIVING PERSONAL INFORMATION TO US OR TO ANY CRICKET
ORGANISATIONS THROUGH OTHER ECB WEBSITES, YOU INDICATE THAT YOU CONSENT TO THE ECB,
THE CRICKET ORGANISATIONS AND ECB PARTNERS COLLECTING AND USING THIS PERSONAL
INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS SET OUT IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

CHILDREN

If you are under 16, you will need the permission of your parent or guardian before registering on
any ECB Website and we may require your parent or guardian to confirm that they have given
permission. We may ask for their contact details so that we can check that they have done so and
may carry out checks to confirm that the details you have given us are correct.

We normally only send newsletters and offers and opportunities to those under 16 where their
parent or guardian has given consent to them being sent. Parents or guardians of those under 16
can change their mind at any time (see ‘Newsletters, Offers and Opportunities’ below).

THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

In order to provide you with the services you require, the ECB will obtain personal information about
you (and your parent or guardian if you are under 16) from ECB Websites, telephone conversations,
emails and written and verbal communications. These will include, for example, your name,
address, email address, phone number and details that are relevant to the service(s) in which you
are interested. Occasionally we may ask for date of birth, for example, where the service you
require has age related restrictions or ethnicity information to enable us to monitor and ensure
compliance with anti-discrimination policies.

We may supplement the information that you provide with other information that we obtain from
our dealings with you or which we receive from other organisations, such as Cricketing
Organisations and ECB Partners.

Information about other people

If you provide information to us about any person other than yourself, you must ensure that they
understand how their information will be used and that you are authorised to disclose it to us, and
to consent to its use on their behalf, before doing so.

IP addresses

In order to understand how users use our website and services, we may collect IP addresses.

Cookies

In common with many other website operators, we may use standard technology called 'cookies'
on ECB Websites. Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your
computer's hard drive and they are used to record how you navigate this Website on each visit.

Our cookies are used to enable us to develop our websites and to enable you to properly navigate
ECB Websites. We use cookies to collect personal information to enable us to reflect our customers
interests and by noting who has seen which pages, properties and advertisements (including click
through from emails), how frequently particular pages are visited and to enable us to determine
the most popular areas of ECB Websites. We may use cookies to enrich your experience of using
ECB Websites by allowing us to tailor what you see to what we have learned about your
preferences during your visits to ECB Websites. Sometimes we may use services of third parties and
they may use cookies on our behalf in order to provide their services.

The particular cookies we use will depend on which ECB Website you are accessing. You can find
the cookie information you need by clicking on the link in the table below for the relevant ECB
Website

You may also get cookies (including Flash cookies) from our sponsors and advertisers if you click on
their links or adverts. You should check their privacy and security policies to understand how they
use these.

Preventing use of cookies

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser to prevent
cookies being stored. With experience, you can usually choose to switch off all cookies or to allow
only certain ‘trusted’ sites to place cookies.

PLEASE NOTE, IF YOU DO TURN COOKIES OFF, THIS WILL LIMIT THE SERVICE THAT WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE TO YOU AND MAY AFFECT YOUR USER EXPERIENCE

HOW WE WILL USE YOUR INFORMATION

All personal information that we obtain about you and/or any other person whose details you
provide will be recorded, used, and protected by us in accordance with current data protection
legislation, our Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy. We will primarily use the personal
information:

to communicate with you in the event that any services requested are unavailable or if
there is a query or problem with your requests

for record keeping purposes

to carry out market research so that we can improve the services we offer

to track and analyse activity on our website

to create an individual profile for you so that we can enhance your user experience, to
understand and respect your preferences and to provide newsletters and details of
relevant offers and opportunities where you have agreed to receive them

Disclosing your personal information

In order to provide our products and services, we may, occasionally, appoint other organisations to
carry out some of the processing activities on our behalf. These may include, for example,
technology hosts, printing companies and mailing houses. In these circumstances, we will ensure
that personal information is properly protected and that it is only used in accordance with this
Privacy Policy.

We may also pass relevant personal information to County Cricket Boards, Clubs and Leagues for
cricket administration and research purposes where we believe this is appropriate to the service
you require or to enable them to understand player activity and develop cricket related services.

CRICKET ORGANISATIONS

As the national governing body for cricket, the ECB has relationships with other cricket related
organisations such as County Cricket Boards, cricket clubs and cricket leagues (each a Cricket
Organisation) and some of the goods and services available on or through ECB Websites are
provided by those Cricket Organisations. Each Cricket Organisation has its own privacy practices
and you should check that you are satisfied with them before you provide any personal
information to them.

ECB PARTNER PROGRAMME

The ECB teams up with a selection of carefully chosen sponsors and commercial partners.

We and the Cricket Organisations and the ECB Partners would like to contact you and/or any
person whose information you provide to us to invite you to enjoy other services (where you have
agreed to us sending an invitation), to provide newsletters and to tell you and/or them about offers
and opportunities that are available and about a range of other initiatives in a number of ways,
including by post, telephone, text/picture/video message or by email. Details of how to opt-in to
or opt-out of receiving details of offers are on relevant pages of this Website, the Sub Sites, in
relevant forms you complete and/or in the electronic message you receive.

Subscribe / Unsubscribe

You and any other person whose information you have provided to us can change your/their mind about whether you wish to receive details of offers and opportunities at any time by using any of the methods shown below (see the section "How to contact us" below) or by following the instructions with each offer you/they receive.

SECURITY

We take the security of personal information seriously. We employ security technology, including
firewalls, and Secure Socket Layers to safeguard information and have procedures in place to
ensure that our paper and computer systems and databases are protected against unauthorised
disclosure, use, loss and damage.

MONITORING

We may monitor or record telephone calls for security purposes and to improve the quality of the
services we provide to you.

USE OF YOUR INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION

Some of the organisations to which we may disclose personal information may be situated outside
of the European Union. In order to provide the products and services you or others whose
information you have provided to us, we may need to transfer your/their personal information to
these countries some of which do not have laws that protect privacy rights as extensively as in the
United Kingdom. If we do transfer your personal information to other territories, we will take proper
steps to ensure that the information is protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy laws and practice are constantly developing and we aim to meet high standards. Our
policies and procedures are, therefore, under continual review. We may, from time to time, update
our security and privacy policies and suggest that you check this page periodically to review our
latest policy.

UPDATING AND CORRECTING INFORMATION

You may update or correct your personal information online in relevant membership areas or by
contacting us in writing or by email (see the section "How to contact us" below). Please include
your name, address and/or email address when you contact us as this helps us to ensure that we
accept amendments only from the correct person. We encourage you to promptly update your
personal information if it changes. If you are providing updates or corrections about another
person, we may require you to provide us with proof that you are authorised to provide that
information to us.

YOUR RIGHTS TO ACCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right to receive a copy of the personal information that we hold about you. The
same right applies to any other person whose personal information you provide to us. We may
charge a small fee towards the cost of administering any request made. The current fee is £10.00.
